OH NO!! WE HAVE TO GO CAMPING


I love my husband!! Being his wife for the past 7 1/2 years has made me his Number one fan. The blog would be nothing but sweet and mushy sentences if I really added all the reasons why I love this man, but he knows them all and I will keep showing him day after day that I am just grateful I can be his wife. With that said the number 1 reason my husband better be my Number one fan is, because every year I pack up our family so we can go camping with his family. I refuse to call it a tradition because this was only the 4th year they have done it and I can't imagine this lasting when all the 20 grandchildren are in their teenage years. I find the concept of camping in a tent and sleeping on the hard ground a step backwards for the evolution that our caveman ancestry has worked so hard to over come. It might be hard to believe that it isn't the dirt that makes me hate camping (well sometimes) however, the days it takes to prepare for it and the weeks it takes to clean up from it. My car smells like old plastic and dirt, while my hair smells like I have been smoking for most part of my life. Yes, it is true that the children have a good time but we could have a good time and then return to a nice hotel, take a bath and enjoy the comforts of this great society we live in.
*I am still new to this blogging world so instead of adding a comment to every picture I just clumped them together.
Highlight on this vacation are:
*Mark catching the biggest Crawdaddy's
*Nice weather
*Spending time with my family
*Hearing "the best stories ever" according to Nedra, my mother-in-law
*And the fact that I don't have to do this for another year !!
